Nope, John, not too complicated.

I sometimes add a little portamento to my mono sax sound(about 20-30 on my PSR-3000)and I can get slides to notes by playing legato, or holding the first note played while pressing another higher or lower note.

I find limiting myself to the one note at a time makes me phrase more like a sax player....it may be just psychological...I don't know.

In the case of the PSR-7000(I had an 8000) the lead voice could be made mono and have a high or low note priority (user selectable)so that a note at the top of a chord would do what you expected of it.

I'm not sure if the Tyros1/2 offer this feature...perhaps someone else could answer that for us...I'm sure you could make the SA Sax mono all the time, but I'm not sure of the note priority selectability.

I thought the Tyros2 SA sax was a killer and took a bit of practise to get the most from it.

Hope this helps a bit.

Ian
